Paint Party Friday

Number 53 and more to come. Happy Paint Party Friday everyone. I never get tired of saying that. Today is a painting with a new style for me.  With me it's always been the faces, since I find it hard to paint the whole body and backgrounds as well. Practicing will help me, I hope.

I planted some flowers in a nice vase for the front porch area. I plan on getting a frame for this painting. It's 16 x 20. I want to hang it on the outside porch wall facing the security door when someone comes onto the porch, as a welcome. When I finish this project, I'll take pictures and share.

I've titled this painting:

YOUR BLESSINGS, PLEASE






My photography skills just kill me. This painting looks a lot better in person. This is not a good shot at all. There were about 5 or 6 pictures taken and these came out the best. I'm going to have to give in and take a photography class, some where in the area. Have a great weekend. I don't know what all those colorful look like balloons are, and don't know why they were added. They really make no sense, they just hang there???? As you can see the first one has string attached and the rest look like they are floating in air. Brother, can you spare me a brain? tee hee. Excuse my painting, some day I will do better.

In any event, Happy PPF Day and have a great weekend, and since blessings are in order, blessings to you and me. Take care.

My New Revolver Ball 10/19/11

(Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
